Legends of Runeterra

Indescribable embarrassment and guilt lingered in Tiana's heart.

Originally, I invited Li En here to thank him for saving my life.

As a result, after Li En had worked so hard to treat him, he actually treated him as a demon and gave him a hard elbow.

Although the attack was ultimately blocked accurately by Li En's palm, it did not reduce Tiana's shame at all.

"I'm so sorry, Li En, this is all my fault!"

'When you apologize you should...'

Looking at Tiana bowing, Li En still didn't say this.

On the one hand, Tiana couldn't understand this joke, on the other hand, after the sudden attack just now, she had already received a wave of "face cleanser".

"Ahem! It's okay, Tiana. The devil's methods are too cunning. It's a good thing that you are vigilant.

Besides, you didn’t hurt me.”

Li En helped Tiana up and comforted her with a smile.

"But..."

"Well, let's just say that we have experienced life and death together, so don't dwell on such trivial matters!"

"I understand."

Under Li En's gaze, Tiana nodded slightly, and the two sat back on the sofa.

"Well, now let me tell you the details."

"Okay Lee En."

“What remains in you is the remaining power of another, more powerful demon.

The specific reason is that when I was pulled into the other dimension by the other party that day, you accidentally caught a glimpse of the power displayed by the other party, which led to you being tricked."

"You can curse me just by looking at me!?"

“That’s right, but don’t worry, I have removed the remaining power now.

Besides, that guy was only targeting me at the time, and he won’t and can’t come after you in the future.”

Even though she knew that her endless gratitude was too pale and powerless, as someone who was valued by the Third Life and a good friend of Jarvan, and whose own power was stronger than she could imagine, Tiana found that apart from thanking him, she seemed to have nothing to give the other party.

Even if it was a thank-you gift that I specially prepared, it was basically nothing compared to the 'Dream Bracelet'.

"Thank...thank you Li En!"

"Well, you're welcome."

Li En smiled and nodded, then raised his hand.

"Give me your left hand."

"Huh? Oh, okay."

The white and flexible palm was placed in Li En's hand. He took out a bracelet from his arms and put it on Tiana's wrist again.

Light golden patterns are engraved on the bracelet, and 10 sapphires are inlaid in an orderly manner.

The silvery-white material is very similar to rune steel, or exactly the same.

But in stark contrast to the feeling that rune steel gave the mage, Tiana, who put on the bracelet, felt that the magic power in her body was abundant.

"Li En, this..."

"It's a rune steel bracelet, but after I filled it with energy, combined with the engraved patterns, it can now be filled with magic power."

"So that's how it is, then..."

"I am taking back the 'Dream Bracelet'. On the one hand, it was a gift from someone else, and on the other hand, it is of no use to you now.

The situation of the magic circuits in your body is not very optimistic due to the 'curse', that is, the magic you awakened is related to 'life'. If it were anyone else, they would be crippled and crazy if not dead.

The bracelet I give you now, if worn for a long time, can gently repair your magic circuits."

Facing Li En's gaze, Tiana moved her mouth slightly but said nothing.

Seeing this, Li En smiled slightly.

"Just wear it. It's because of me that you encountered that more troublesome demon. Consider it my apology."

"No, Li En, you saved me..."

"Okay, okay, let's not dwell on this. Just take it."

Using a little force with both hands, Li En pressed Tiana's hands onto her legs.

Then Li En's eyes turned and he immediately changed the subject.

"By the way, I see there is a gift box on the side of the sofa. Who are you going to give it to?"

"This...I..."

Compared to the bracelet given by Li En, her gift was a bit too frivolous, and Tiana showed a somewhat embarrassed look on her face.

"Well, this was originally the thank you gift I was going to give you, but compared to your kindness, it's really not worth mentioning.

Please allow me to prepare it and give it to you next time."

"The moment a gift is prepared, it belongs to the person to whom it is given."

Li En picked up the gift box carefully.

"It's a bit heavy, can I take it apart and have a look?"

"...Um"

Seeing Tiana nod, Li En opened the gift box with a smile.

A long sword about 1.2 meters long, simple yet detailed, and its scabbard lay quietly in the box.

"I asked the craftsman to use the best alloy to forge the rune steel sword. Compared to your bracelet..."

"Hey~!"

The long sword was unsheathed, and a melodious sword sound was heard.

Feeling the overall feeling of the sword while his eyes moved over the sword, a smile appeared on Li En's lips.

"Great long sword, I like it very much, does it have a name?"

"'Anatole'!"

Tiana blurted out, it was obvious that the other party had already thought of a name for the sword.

"What does this name mean?"

"It means 'Sword that cuts off the darkness'!"

While explaining the moral, Tiana's eyes were fixed on Li En, with an inexplicable look flashing in her eyes.

"Hey~!"

Sheathing the sword, Li En looked at Tiana.

"Thank you for the gift!"

"Well, if you like it."

...

As soon as I returned to Lux's room, the girl immediately came to greet me.

"Li En, you're finally back~!"

"Well, Ti...your aunt gave me a gift to thank me. Look, it's this sword."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Nestled in Li En's arms, Lux's heart was instantly at ease as she didn't smell any smell that shouldn't be there.

Lux glanced at the sword briefly and responded perfunctorily without much interest.

"Well, it looks like a very good long sword~!"

"Haha~! You~!"

Li En pinched Lux's little face but did not point out Lux's little thoughts.

In addition, he did not intend to tell the other party about Tiana's situation.

The main thing is that the problem has been resolved. Speaking it out will only make Lux worry for a moment, but it is useless other than that.

"I asked someone to prepare some snacks, Li En, let's eat together~!"

"Okay, let's... huh!?"

"What's wrong, Lee En?"

Seeing Li En suddenly turn his head to look to the south with a frown on his face, Lux was confused and worried.

“Sorry Lux, I have something urgent to deal with, it may take a while.

And Eve has to come with me."

"Will it take long?"

Lux quickly took out the ancient scroll and handed it to Li En.

"At least not less than the last time. Tell the others and say sorry to them!"

Their lips touched and separated immediately, and before Lux could speak, Li En disappeared into the room.

"Really...please come back safely..."
